Inspection Robots to Assist with The Future of Track Operation and Maintenance
The concept of digital transformation is paramount in the development of rail transport. Meanwhile, emerging technologies represented by the Internet, IoT, big data, cloud computing, AI, robotics, new energy and new materials are accelerating their integration with rail transport. As one of the systematic solutions to realize the digital transformation of the industry, intelligent operation and maintenance plays an important technical support and guarantee role in improving the operation and management level of rail transportation and realizing the cost reduction and efficiency increase of operation. The intelligent inspection robot is one of them. The application of intelligent inspection robot can easily solve the following intractable problems encountered in railway operation and maintenance: 1. Unable to inspect in time Manual inspection can not achieve full coverage, can not find equipment hidden dangers in time, but the intelligent robot can inspect 24 hours a day without dead an...
